Precision parallels for accurate workholding
Parallel parallels, also known as precision parallels and setup parallels, provide stable, ground reference surfaces that ensure workpieces are aligned and levelled for milling, drilling and grinding operations. Used as support and spacing blocks, they help to secure components during machining and enable quick, repeatable setup while facilitating inspection of parallelism and flatness; typical materials include hardened steel, stainless steel and carbide for long life. By offering high tolerances and finely ground surfaces, these precision parallels, setup parallels and machining parallels reduce setup time, improve dimensional accuracy and support precise tool and machine adjustments.

Parallel stop – 10 x 60 x 120 mm for 10 mm slot width (Metav IndustryLine) The parallel stop, 10 x 60 x 120 mm for 10 mm slot width is a hardened and ground parallel support designed for setting and locating workpieces in machine grooves, offering high positional stability and repeatable reference surfaces. Hardened, ground special steel Precise dimensions 10 x 60 x 120 mm Suited for machine grooves H8 Delivered in pairs for matched setup Faster set-up with a durable reference surface A hardened and ground special steel body provides a wear‑resistant reference that keeps setups consistent over time. The precise nominal tolerance of 0 / -0.02 mm with height class IT5 ensures that the stop gives a stable datum for repetitive locating tasks, reducing rework and idle time. As a result, cycle times are shortened and process reliability is improved by using a repeatable mechanical reference rather than temporary shims or improvised supports. Accurate positioning for slot-guided assemblies The geometry—10 x 60 x 120 mm with a height of 60 ±0.0065 mm—is optimised for insertion into machine slots specified as H8, enabling direct use as a positive stop inside T‑slots and grooves. Ground contact faces minimise play and support precise edge location, so alignment and machining tolerance chains remain tight. This precision implies fewer downstream adjustments and a clearer conformity to drawing tolerances when producing batches or assemblies. Matched pairs and workshop compatibility Delivered pairwise, the supports are prepared for matched use, which simplifies parallelism control when both sides of a component need identical referencing. The component weight of 1.1 kg and the compact format make the items easy to handle while the hardened finish improves resistance to everyday workshop wear. The product is suitable wherever a rigid, accurately sized support is required for locating parts in groove‑guided machine fixtures. For matched, wear‑resistant parallel supports from Metav IndustryLine, contact Metav Werkzeuge for ordering and application advice — expert consultation is available to specify the correct set for the machine groove and tolerance class in question.

Engineered for everyday workshop use At 100 mm length and compact cross-section 3 x 16 mm, these blocks suit common vices, jigs and fixture arrangements without overhanging or creating unstable fulcrums. The special steel construction resists deformation and preserves edge geometry, while the compact mass makes handling and reconfiguration quick during shift changes. For machinists, the practical benefit is immediate: reliable elevation and parallelism during milling, drilling or inspection tasks, improving throughput without complex fixturing. Compliance with DIN ISO 2768 underlines the product’s dimensional consistency for integration into standardised production routines. Traceability and workshop confidence Each item is referenced for logistics and inventory control via its unique identifiers, supporting traceable procurement and easy restocking.

Precision alignment and stable support for exact machining
Parallels, also known as parallel blocks or parallel supports, provide reliable reference surfaces for a wide range of workshop and production tasks. Designed for aligning and levelling workpieces or machine components, they are an essential accessory in milling, drilling and grinding where parallelism and flatness are critical.
How parallels support your machining process
Parallels are used to support and stabilise workpieces during machining, to set tools and machines precisely, and to act as reference surfaces for measuring and testing. In practice they ensure a workpiece remains secure and true to the intended datum, reducing chatter and enabling consistent, repeatable results. Typical applications include clamping setups on machine vises, height setting for toolholders, and as spacers to guarantee uniform gaps between components.
Tangible advantages that improve throughput and quality
- Increased precision through tight tolerances and repeatable reference surfaces.
- Reduced setup time by using standardised sets with graduated sizes and thicknesses.
- Extended tool and workpiece life thanks to robust materials such as hardened steel, stainless steel or carbide.
